Terrible picture on Netflix
Having a bad time with my new TV. Recently purchased KD48A9. The first TV was exchanged because of a fault but the picture itself was fantastic. The new set is so much darker. I tried watching a film in Netflix calibrated mode and it was impossible to watch as it was so dark. I could not even see the white printing on the screen on the left-hand side. Has anyone else had this problem with Netflix calibrated mode? I am so disappointed.

Hi
Does the picture seem brighter when you turn off Netflix Calibrated mode? Could you show us how dark it is with a picture (preferably with average lighting in the room as opposed to complete darkness)?

Hi, Thank you for your interest. Yes, the picture is much better when I switch off Netflix calibrated mode. After reading up on all the features of the TV, I expected a great picture when the mode was switched on. It is going dark here now, so I will have a go at taking a picture in the next day or two. Thank you again for your help.

You are right. Things are okay with studio lighting or outside scenes but some films are poor, particularly indoor scenes and this is also the same when I watch through my Sky box. I couldn’t believe it when I tried Netflix Calibrated mode when “trying” to watch a film on Netflix. The calibrated mode is now permanently switched off. I am going to try to adjust my picture settings on Custom as I understand I can try out settings and will not mess up other settings. Is this right. Thank you again for helping me.
